Independent Study States Obamacare To Drive Up Healthcare Costs 32%

Affordable healthcare is impossible with an obsolete and needless leech industry sucking all the profit off the top in advance.

 

Said the ostrich.

 

Yep the republicans have defense and oil. The democrats have healthcare and unions.

 

You got something against my best friend here?

Here, Myrtle! Don't let that bad man hurt your feelings. Good girl.

 

I think you should run for office Mook. I would probably vote for you.

 

Obamacare included a 3% tax on medical supplies purchased. Doctor's who have signed on with insurances don't get to choose their rates without approval from the insurance company, so they automatically have 3% of their income slashed without anyway to recoup it. most retail or service providers would be able to pass that additional cost on to the consumer, but not healthcare for some reason. There's an email floating around out there about someone being hit up with this tax when they bought some fishing or hunting equipment from a sporting goods store. I have a feeling that the tax was related to something else, but it sure appeared as though it was a by product of the medical supply tax that's apart of Obamacare.

Although not directly related to Obamacare, the process for requesting a rate change with an insurance company is ridiculous too. Any of you familiar with it? You enter what you want to charge for every type of procedure you want that carrier to cover and it has to fall within the insurance companies predetermined range, which they won't tell you in advance. If any of your rates don't fall within their range, you entire request is denied and you're not informed of which procedure they rejected your pricing for. If you fail to get it within range after 3 times, you're locked out of the system and have to wait a month to try to process all over again. Crazy...
